NEW HAVEN, Conn. (Project Syndicate) — There are many moving parts in China’s daunting transition to what its leaders call a moderately well-off society. Tectonic shifts are occurring simultaneously on several fronts — the economy, financial markets, geopolitical strategy, and social policy. The ultimate test may well lie in managing the exceedingly complex interplay among these developments. Is China’s leadership up to the task, or has it bitten off too much at once?

Most Western commentators continue to oversimplify this debate, framing it in terms of the proverbial China hard-landing scenarios that have been off the mark for 20 years.

In the wake of this summer’s stock-market plunge and surprising devaluation of the renminbi USDCNY, -0.2592% the same thing is happening again. I suspect, however, that fears of an outright recession in China are vastly overblown.

AL-MINYA, Lebanon — While the world’s attention is fixed on the tens of thousands of Syrian refugees swarming into Europe, a potentially far more profound crisis is unfolding in the countries of the Middle East that have borne the brunt of the world’s failure to resolve the Syrian war.

UN condemns use of sexual violence as war tactic


Saturday 29 August 2015 at 11:50 AM ET

[JURIST] The United Nations Security Council [official website] on Friday condemned [press release] the use of sexual violence as a "tactic of war" in Iraq and Syria. Following a briefing by UN Special Representative for Sexual Violence in Conflict Zainab Bangura [official website], the council emphasized that rape and other forms of "serious sexual violence" are war crimes and violate the Geneva convention [Red Cross backgrounder]. The council went on to urge members of the international community to hold those responsible accountable, and underscored the importance of women's rights, especially in areas of conflict.

The human rights abuses in Syria and Iraq are of particular concern to the UN Security Council. Although various conflicts in those regions are ongoing, the insurgence of the Islamic State into Syria and Iraq since 2013 has caused increasing international alarm for its human rights abuses [JURIST report]. Last month the US State Department said that the US and Turkey have agreed to establish [JURIST report] a 'safe zone' for Syrian refugees fleeing the Islamic State. In June, the UNESCO World Heritage Committee said that extremist groups' destruction of antiquities and heritage sites in conflict zones could amount to war crimes [JURIST report]. In March the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights reported that the actions of IS in Iraq may amount to genocide [JURIST report], crimes against humanity and war crimes. Also in March the UN Assistance Mission for Iraq and the High Commissioner for Human Rights jointly released [JURIST report] a report detailing violations against Iraqi civilians under the spread of IS.
